- A Journey From The Mediterranean To Bombay By The Euphrates And Tigris Valleys And The Persian Gulf

Bag om Through Turkish Arabia

""Through Turkish Arabia"" is a travelogue written by Henry Swainson Cowper, chronicling his journey from the Mediterranean to Bombay through the Euphrates and Tigris Valleys and the Persian Gulf. The book is a vivid account of Cowper's experiences as he travels through Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Persia, encountering various cultures and landscapes along the way. He describes the people he meets, the customs he observes, and the challenges he faces, including navigating treacherous terrain and dealing with local officials. Cowper's writing is both informative and entertaining, providing a fascinating glimpse into a world that was largely unknown to Western audiences at the time. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Middle East, as well as those who enjoy travel writing and adventure stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
